And so begins "From the Back of a Thirsty Camel: Ecstatic Longings," Brandon Thompson's second book of ecstatic poetry. Far more than just a collection of poetry, "From the Back of a Thirsty Camel" is a penetrating exploration of writing as spiritual practice. In its pages, readers will find not only exquisite poems that glimmer with insight, but will also be invited on a journey: deeper into themselves, deeper into Spirit, and deeper into writing as a practice of Awakening.
What is ecstatic poetry? How can this mysterious form of writing once practiced by the contemplative Sufi Masters come into our lives and transform our hearts? In this book, Brandon Thompson endeavors to answer these questions and many more. He brings together a decades-long path of spiritual exploration, a harrowing personal journey from shadow into light, and a profound investigation into the nature of consciousness and its relationship to love, loss, and our place in the cosmos.
From its first page to its last, "From the Back of a Thirsty Camel: Ecstatic Longings" is a
to the power of words. It is an offering delivered on bended knee to all of those who sense that words can be a vessel for their longings and a vehicle towards deeper insight, wholeness, and transformation.
